Obtain legal permanent residence (“green card”)
-
Petition for and unite with family members;
-
Gain employment authorization;
-
Renew their DACA status; and
-
Become U.S. citizens.

We also help clients access immigration benefits for the most vulnerable, including: victims of crime or domestic abuse; refugees; asylees; persons from countries experiencing natural disaster or civil upheaval; and youth who have experienced abuse, neglect, or abandonment.

FOOD PROGRAM
Thanks to our nonprofit partners and volunteers, our weekly food distribution program provides families in the greater New Haven area with prepared boxes of staples, fruits and vegetables. There are currently 115 families registered, and more who benefit from the “pop-up pantry.”
